Absolutely stunning. Love this Lorraine.
Off subject: Do you know what has happened to Dave Mac by any chance? I swung by his C2C and it's gone. :(

@Organik: Hey Om, thanks a lot...
I know, I noticed so I sent him an e-mail. He's too busy, but he'll let us know when he has a new place ;)
I miss his photo and lyrics already :)

I like the way you have captured the details even in the darkness of the wintry scene, it stands out well and the snow looks wonderful.

I like the b/w for this because of the starkness... I can hear the crunch of the snow underfoot and feel my breath fogging in the cold air... the silence of winter as it were.

It looks to me like you're on a creative roll! I think that sometimes happens to Canadians when it starts snowing. You think?

Ahhhhhh, I crown thee Queen of Moods, dear Lady Lorraine!! Here is yet another heart-stopping mood piece, matchless in composition, tones, atmosphere, ambience. Can I love it enough??? I fear not!! Incomparable this is. Truly. :)

I like answering each individually, and believe me I have the time, but, there's just so many ways to say thank you, and then it gets boring, so I'll do group hugs, so to speak..to thank you for your lovely comments et de meme pour toi Martine, quoique je suis consciente que tu comprends l'anglais parfaitement, je te remercie tout de meme en français (comme tu vois, je ne trouve pas toujours mes accents)
Thank you dear fellow-photographers ;)
